Zoe Kalapos: The History of Me

Hi, Zoe Kalapos here. Wanted to let everyone know how excited I am to be on the USASA 2012-2013 Team. I have been on snow my entire life. I started skiing in Northern Michigan when I was 2, and switched to snowboarding at age 5. Last season was one of my best seasons yet! I won the Burton European Open for Junior Women’s Halfpipe, took 1st place at the USASA Nationals for Youth Women’s Halfpipe and got 2nd place in Slopestyle for Youth Women’s at Nationals.

I just got back from 3 weeks training in New Zealand. One of the best 3 weeks of my entire life! The snow, halfpipe and conditions were amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Now I am back in Colorado for some early season training. I have been riding Keystone and Copper the past few weeks. Still dreaming of my first pow day of the season
